Just switched to a TBolt from OG Incredible. Was running cm7 on it, and loved it. Just wanted some idea as to the best version of cm7 for Tbolt and any other things to make it run better. Any help would be appreciated. I kinda dont have time to read thru 10000 posts in the cm7 topic...
Welcome.
I don't think you're going to get a ton of help with a first post like that, but you might want to check out the CM7 links from the forum post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081930
There are also a couple posts at the top of here and the Q&A subforum about what roms people prefer.
I don't have CM7 on my thunderbolt, but on a different device. In general, CM7 is stable enough such that the recent nightlies, if not the latest, are usually the best. However, currently most of the CM dev work is focused on ICS/CM9.
I just came from dinc last week. I had senae 3.5 on mine, though ive flashed every dinc rom ever available. You may want to try a sense rom, i was shocked how smooth 3.5 mikrunny is on this, and it all works. I will try some aosp roms soon, there is a cool one with ics theme, pretty slick. Just experiment dude, this phone rocks.

If you don't need MMS, I highly recommend MIUI. On the other hand, fully featured and most awesomely completely customizable - Gingeritis 3D. I personally switched from Gingeritis to AOSP recently, better battery life and faster performance but you can't use VZW apps. I'm currently running on Thundershed CM7 nightly and I will probably run this until CM9.

I'm currently running ThunderShed and it's working REALLY well for me. It's a CM7 ROM from a guy called Workshed. It's really good.
If you Google "Thundershed Thunderbolt" you'll find it very easily.

+1 thundershed is ur only option imo. As its the only aosp rom with good incall volume levels. And its super smooth. miui does not have working mms which is a bummer cause i like miui also.
Runnin thundershed now, i also came from dinc. This is the best aosp rom ive ever run.

Tried the ThunderShed, for whatever reason it couldn't reliability & consistently reconnect to wifi; toggled/tweaked all settings, no joy. Location won't lock either.

did you guys flash his gapps package before you rebooted? I haven't had any issues with location - it actually seems a lot faster and more accurate than the other CM7 build I was using, which was frankly working fine anyway.

You need to go to a Sense based ROM and connect to GPS, then flash (while still connected) to a AOSP ROM to fix GPS permanently.
Also I'm not sure why you're having those WiFi issues; try deleting the WiFi and DHCP folders, I forget where theyre located. I suppose running fix permissions wouldn't hurt, hahaha, I know people hate that response.

I would.suggest reflashing. There utas no lag on my phone with cognition
It's always been laggy, because it's based on a Captivate ROM. The i9000 ROMs are faster, use on based on that.
I suggest mine, of course, but there's plenty to choose from.
Zero lag here. Mikeymike is always dissing cog. Like other posts said reflash and masterclear.

Yeah use an I9000 rom and lose some functionality of my phone or run a captivate rom with voodoo lagfix and have no issues. Don't diss some other rom to hype yours up.
This is my captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine.

Some people have no reading comprehension.
And I'm not "hyping up my ROM". I'm not "dissing" anyone (haven't heard that since middle school...).
One time, someone posted a question in Development instead of Q&A citing that none of the developers or knowledgable people leave the Development forum.
Since then I've been in both General and Q&A trying to help people.
If you don't like what I suggested, fine. Rebut it, or simply ignore it.
@malicenfz:
You likely have Voodoo disabled.
cog has never been laggy (for me at least, remember to enable lag fix)
I flashed a i9000 rom once and lost my 3 button download mode and had to build a jig lol

Also miui. I didn't give it a fair chance never tried miui before. I hope it gets ported beyond miui.
Can't wait for it that's for sure

Working terrific so far. Looks absolutely identical to regular miui. Except keyboard which is a tiny bit smaller I believe. Also noticibly faster in general. I do recommend it from my experience so far.
been running ICS build since it's availability and everything has been smooth and stable. it "feels" faster than any other MIUI build i've used, but could just be placebo effect unless ICS' hardware acceleration is really working.
i even had wifi calling working a couple times, but this has not been consistent. sometimes it worked and other times i had the "invalid sim" error.
can't really comment on battery life as i'm still re-calibrating.
the only issue i've run into is a Market FC only when i try to swipe through the screenshots for apps...weird.
other than the issue listed above, this rom has been great and error free for me.
tried it out.... hated the Ui would much prefer weapon x ui with ics improvements and toggles going back to weaponx 2.8.
Been using the ICS build. No crazy real world speeds were felt by me. Only going to keep running this build if the battery life is better than the regular one.
Missing extended power menu. Might be missing gps.config fix & APN fix files in this ICS build.
Looks & feels the same as any other MIUI Whitehawkx has ported over.
Installed just now...works great and benchmarks return 2700+. Also, I was having terrible problems with Youtube before with any other MIUI version (very, very, very, verrrrrry slow loading). Now Youtube is faster to load than when it was with Gingerbread.
THANK YOU Whitehawkx!

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I had that happen but only because miui considered it a favorite app and wanted you to submit a rating.
That's the only thing I found impressive was the media player, galnet player. I'd love to see it in cm7 or in a market.
Playing with miui on my G2 just to get a feel for it. Would have moved it to g2x but I need T-Mobile wifi to work

These ICS framework MIUI ROMs are a disgrace to the name of MIUI, its not official MIUI ICS so really, why bother making such crap kangs?

What ROM are you using? I've played it on MIUI, Cyanogenmod, multiple Sense 3.0 and 3.5 roms, and haven't had any lag with any of them.
Also, if you have anything other than the default kernel for each rom please let me know that as well.
I don't recall. I got it when it wad released and first big news. I switch a lot so tough to say. Sorry no help there.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
Well...i would say to give absolution a try. It has overclocking with the kernel it uses (which isn't really necessary but could be useful for you) and runs very smooth for me. Its a Cyanogenmod rom so no "sense" but there are a ton of customizations.
It runs ok in all roms I've tried.
But absolution, blackice, or any other CM rom should be faster then a sense rom.

I actually tried this and downloaded a Faux kernel but now when I open up this game, it gives me the spinning wheel and it says getting ready. This is on a MIUI rom 2.3.30
I had tones of issues on GB. So far no issues at all with various ICS roms floating around. Take the plunge and switch to ICS.
Ok here's a work around to my problem....
Draw something will work with Faux kernel for MIUI 2.3.30 but you can only use your data instead of WIFI. For some reason when in WIFI, you will get the endless "Getting Ready" message but if you turn off your WIFI and use your data. It seems to work ok.
Works fine for me on aosp. Laggy at times

So I have been on Beans for a while and I love it since it is tw with a aosp touch and feel but lately I have been noticing in the developmental thread that there are now far more 4.2 roms out there. I know that aosp has been pretty damn buggy just a month or so back but are they now stable? or dare I say it almost daily driver worthy? Im actually in the process of downloading the latest liquid smooth rom to check it out and I cant wait to see the results.
I've tried all the 4.2 ROMs and the only one where everything works on my phone; GPS, MMS, call volume etc, is mastamoons build. I know ROMs work different on everyone's phone though.

I think that most of them are stable in the sense that they can be daily drivers depending on what features you need.
All of them except for baked black bean and mastamoons unofficial builds use a new audio stack that breaks Bluetooth audio streaming.
All of them have issues with encrypted Wi-Fi tethering.
I've been using the baked ROM, it's awesome. Haven't had any random crashes, audio and GPS work well, and data is pretty good for the most part
